    ive not seen enough of crawford to class this as a great win , hes a prospect who was unknown a year ago ... but i do no enough about ricky burns to know that he is not a top fighter ....beltran not good enough ? at world level hes not , hence why he was picked , i saw him kod on fnf in 2 a year before , nice lad ricky , wish him the best , but u do him no favours ! hes a euro level fighter whos a 2 weight world champ thanks to f r ank , he should be lauded for over achieving .

    Mate Ricky was more than willing to make this fight Beltran, it was the WBO who insisted Ricky fight Crawford, yes Beltran deserves another shot but you don't always get what you deserve in this sport, imo Ricky needs to move on to bigger fights and quick

    So beating the No1 SFW in Martinez, Mitchell, Moses ex world champ, Kats and Gonzalez classes you as Euro level fighter?
    Well the rest of the British fighters must be British masters or Area level :huh
    Sorry mate your so wrong

    Ricky has had some good wins like you say against Martinez, Mitchell, Kats, Gonzalez these are decent fighters.

    I think the Crawford will be a big test and if he comes through that then he is in a great position to unify

    That win against Gonzalez is going to look better and better as time goes on, very impressed with him.

    cheers:good fair play. I don't read into sparring to much but Bradley is the man at the moment that's seriously good for Crawford.

    I've watched Crawford box a number of times and he is a skillful boxer, thats why I'm going for a Crawford win.

    Doubts will be can he handle a war, I think thats Rickys best chance of winning if he does make it a war, because he aint going to out box this guy.

    Listening to that interview though Bradley was hardly going to say he was shite lol but your right burns needs to make it a really ugly fight imo
